00:00:00Here he comes, here he comes, there's the truppets, there's the drums, here he comes.
00:00:10Hop along, Cassidy, here he comes.
00:00:30The Lone Ranger.
00:01:00The Lone Ranger.
00:01:30All right, boys, get the herd moving.
00:01:47Well, I hate to see you go, Hoppy, but I guess your mind is made up.
00:02:06I know, Buck, I've been talking about going to New York for a long time.
00:02:11I figured after I got these cattle loaded, there wouldn't be much to do, and it'd be a good time for me to make the trip.
00:02:15Gee, Hoppy, I don't see why I can't go.
00:02:18You're staying right here with Wendy.
00:02:19I kind of figure a new boss might do you some good.
00:02:23Oh, but, Hoppy, if I go...
00:02:24Oh, there you go.
00:02:26Ain't you learned yet when Hoppy says something he means it?
00:02:36Where'd you go to New York?
00:02:39Yep.
00:02:42Couldn't let you go without saying goodbye, Hoppy.
00:02:45Well, it's a mighty nice of you to come over.
00:02:47Have a good time.
00:02:48I will.
00:02:50Hurry back, because we're sure going to miss you.
00:02:52Goodbye.
00:02:52Goodbye.
00:02:55Goodbye, boys.
00:02:57So long, Buck.
00:02:58So long, Hoppy.
00:02:59Bye, Hoppy.
00:03:00Bye, Hoppy.
00:03:00Bye, Hoppy.
00:03:00I sure hate to see Hoppy go without us, Wendy.
00:03:10You don't hear me cheering, then, do you?
00:03:12Come on, let's head back to ranch.
00:03:14Not me.
00:03:15I'm going into town.
00:03:16I've got a little forgetting to do.
00:03:17You hear what Hoppy said?
00:03:18I'm the boss.
00:03:19You better steer clear of town.
00:03:21Besides, you hear what Buck said.
00:03:23He didn't want his men getting in no flights.
00:03:25Well, maybe a little excitement wouldn't go bad right now.
00:03:29Yeah.
00:03:29Maybe he wouldn't.
00:03:31Right now.
00:03:59Oh, hello, Frazier.
00:04:03Hello.
00:04:04If you look over those last samples of ore that Slade brought in, just finished.
00:04:08It runs over $600 to the ton.
00:04:10I had an idea it was high grade.
00:04:12That seems to be my lucky day.
00:04:15I'm getting all the breaks.
00:04:16What do you mean?
00:04:18Cassidy pulled out this morning, heading for new range.
00:04:21For good.
00:04:23I'll bet 10 to 1 to freeze out mine as a new owner inside of a month.
00:04:27You figure out everything, don't you, Perkins?
00:04:31Tell Slade I'm expecting him to see that an accident happens to Dennis.
00:04:34And the sooner, the better.
00:04:47How did it happen?
00:04:48Got careless.
00:04:50I told him to be careful while he's working around that dead end.
00:04:53Piece of timber fell on him.
00:04:55That's the third man that's died down here in a week.
00:04:59I'm beginning to think the place is jinxed.
00:05:01Me too.
00:05:02And if it weren't that folks might think I was yellow, I'd quit right now.
00:05:06And I'd tell all the boys they'd better do the same thing.
00:05:08Can't say that I blame you much.
00:05:09Lead with your left, Lucky.
00:05:24You ain't gonna win no fights.
00:05:26Lead with your right.
00:05:26President, call off your miners.
00:05:41What's the matter, Peters?
00:05:43My men playing a little too rough for your cowboys?
00:05:46You men can't take care of themselves.
00:05:48Why don't you keep them out of town?
00:05:49That's exactly what I'm going to do.
00:05:51I've asked you men not to come into town.
00:06:05Now I'm ordering you to stay out.
00:06:08From now on, any man that wants to keep on working for me
00:06:12has got to stay out of this town.
00:06:15Now get back to the ranch.
00:06:21If Hoppy was along, I bet you would like Frazier and his gang.
00:06:28I don't know why he had to go traipsing off anyhow.
00:06:30I bet he had a darn good reason.
00:06:33If you done like I told you,
00:06:34and hadn't led with your right,
00:06:35you wouldn't have got that black eye.
00:06:36Yeah, well, what'd you lead with?
00:06:38Oh, okay.
00:06:39Here's where we hit that pay streak, goodness slave.
00:06:53Yes, Mr. Dennis.
00:06:54It held up and improved
00:06:55until we started operating the new tunnel
00:06:58and fell off completely.
00:07:00That happens sometimes.
00:07:02You think you've got a vein of good ore and it pinches out?
00:07:06Well, I suppose there's nothing left to do but suspend work.
00:07:08So I'll locate that vein again.
00:07:11I hate to do it, but tell the men.
00:07:13Yes, Mr. Dennis.
00:07:38I hate to do it, but tell the men.
00:07:43I don't know.
00:07:44I don't know.
00:07:44I don't know.
00:07:44I don't know.
00:07:45Oh, my God.
00:07:46What are you doing?
00:07:47Let's go.
00:07:47I don't know.
00:07:49I don't know.
00:07:51I don't know.
00:07:52I don't know.
00:07:53It's okay.
00:07:54I don't know.
00:07:55This is the boss.
00:08:25He's dead.
00:08:32All right, let's get him out of here.
00:08:38Somebody's got to tell his wife.
00:08:46I didn't want to bring the matter up at a time like this, Mrs. Dennis, but I knew the circumstances.
00:08:51I knew your husband was running short of cash.
00:08:53I appreciate your tact, but I have no intention of selling the mine.
00:08:57To be frank with you, I don't see how you could possibly develop the freeze-out mine without it costing you a lot more than it's worth.
00:09:05However, I think I could handle both of them without much added expense or trouble.
00:09:09Thanks, Mr. Fraser, but I'm not interested in selling.
00:09:13That mine was Denny's dream.
00:09:16I only thought that you would want to carry out your husband's plans and make your home in the East.
00:09:23Move East when I'm satisfied the freeze-out is on a paying basis again.
00:09:27Well, I wish you luck.
00:09:29I hope you succeed.
00:09:31I will, Mr. Fraser.
00:09:33Goodbye.
00:09:34Goodbye, Mrs. Dennis.
00:09:36I hear they had another accident in the freeze-out mine today.
00:09:43It looks like that would be a good place to stay out of.
00:09:47Yeah, I feel kind of sorry for Mrs. Dennis trying to run it all alone.
00:09:52You hear that, son?
00:09:54Yeah.
00:09:55Accident will happen.
00:09:57I'm just wondering if they all was accidents.
00:10:04Where are you going?
00:10:05Town.
00:10:06I got an idea, Miss Anne needs my help.
00:10:09You know what the boss said?
00:10:10If he catches you in town, it's going to cost you your job.
00:10:13Listen, Lucky.
00:10:14If it was Hoppy and somebody needed him, he wouldn't wait to find out what it was going to cost.
00:10:24Wait a minute.
00:10:26I'm going with you.
00:10:34It's very kind of both of you.
00:10:35But what help can you be?
00:10:37You men know nothing about mining.
00:10:39Why, Miss Anne, I forgot more about mining than most men around here will ever know.
00:10:43I'll get you miners if I have to round them up with a six-gun.
00:10:46It's more than that, Wendy.
00:10:47I'm not satisfied with the findings of the inquest.
00:10:50I'm sure Dennis' death wasn't accidental.
00:10:53If you leave it to me, I'll find out.
00:10:55Oh, you couldn't find out what day it was if you had a handful of calendars.
00:10:58I wish Hoppy was here.
00:11:00I bet him and me straighten this thing out in jig time.
00:11:05It wouldn't take long to get a letter to him.
00:11:07I couldn't expect Hoppy to do favors for me.
00:11:10If you think you can't, Miss Anne.
00:11:12You don't know him like I thought you did.
00:11:14I can't ask him to come back, Wendy.
00:11:16She's sure in a mess, all right.
00:11:21Just cause she's too proud to call on the one man who could help her.
00:11:24Well, we can do the call on four.
00:11:26I'm gonna write Hoppy a letter as soon as we get back to the ranch.
00:11:28Can you write?
00:11:30You don't think I went to school a whole year for nothing, do you?
00:11:33Huh?
00:11:34Can anybody read your writing?
00:11:36Anybody but you, you windbag.
00:11:38Say, on second thought, I don't think I should write Hoppy that letter.
00:11:41Eh, afraid even he can't read it, eh?
00:11:43Ain't that?
00:11:44Probably wouldn't reach him in time before he left the shipping post.
00:11:46Well, one of us gotta go after him.
00:11:48Oh.
00:11:49Yeah, well, it might as well be me.
00:11:51See you later, Wendy.
00:11:55Heh, young whippersnapper.
00:12:11Here we go.
00:12:16Leave.
00:12:17Want home?
00:12:18Tell us your questions.
00:12:20Uh, so you should.
00:12:26I'm sure glad I caught you.
00:12:43What's the matter?
00:12:46Dennis is going to kill.
00:12:49Dennis?
00:12:51Looks like murder.
00:12:52I'd better go back.
00:12:58I knew you'd see things that way.
00:13:00Never mind flagging it down.
00:13:02I can't go.
00:13:19Lucky, bring my back.
00:13:21Now I'll see you.
00:13:24Come in, sir.
00:13:40Get back inside, Slade.
00:13:41I don't want Cassidy to see you with me.
00:13:42I wonder what he's doing back in town.
00:13:54I'm not sure.
00:13:56But I'm willing to bet two to one he's not here to help us.
00:13:59I don't like the looks of it.
00:14:00It's too late to back out now.
00:14:01We're in too deep.
00:14:03But I've got an idea that I can figure just as fast as Mr. Cassidy.
00:14:06We'll let him make the first move.
00:14:10Let him think he's got things his own way.
00:14:13Then when the right time comes, I'll take care of Mr. Cassidy if I have to.
00:14:19Now go on and tell me the rest of the story.
00:14:21You know I'll do anything I can to help you.
00:14:24I haven't done your right to ask you to get mixed up in my troubles.
00:14:27You've got every right in the world, Ann.
00:14:30Do you know how I felt about it, Denny?
00:14:32Now come on and tell me.
00:14:35Well, things were going along fine.
00:14:37It looked as if the pay streak would develop into something really worthwhile.
00:14:41If it did, we were going east to live.
00:14:45He went down to the mine to see why the ore was dropping off.
00:14:48A timber fell on him, so they said.
00:14:51But I don't believe it.
00:14:55Somebody's trying to get that property.
00:14:59There's a mine right next to yours, isn't there?
00:15:01Why, yes.
00:15:01The devil may care of mine.
00:15:04Who owns that?
00:15:05Fraser.
00:15:07Do you know anything about him?
00:15:08Oh, no.
00:15:09Except that he's always been rather nice, as far as I know.
00:15:13Did, uh...
00:15:14Did he ever try to buy the mine since Denny...
00:15:17I mean, since the accident?
00:15:18Why, yes.
00:15:20He said it wasn't worth anything, but if a few hundred dollars would help me, he...
00:15:23Harper, you don't think he...
00:15:25I don't know what to think.
00:15:25The first thing we've got to do is find out what happened to that pay streak.
00:15:30If that's still there, it'll tell us a lot.
00:15:33You're not going to try working that mine yourself.
00:15:35It's the only way we can find out anything.
00:15:38But more men are liable to die down there.
00:15:40Maybe you.
00:15:41Nobody goes till these time comes.
00:15:44Besides, folks have always said I don't kill easy.
00:15:48I'm going over and see Buck Peters.
00:15:51Mind if I ride with you?
00:15:52I don't know any better company.
00:15:54Wait a minute, and I'll check it.
00:16:10Lucky's contraptions cross between swimming in the creek and fetching a pail of water.
00:16:14Hey, what's the idea you get to clean?
00:16:19You just get dirty again.
00:16:21Ain't you ever heard that cleanliness is next to godliness?
00:16:23Oh, that's on a Sunday.
00:16:25Oh, that's every day.
00:16:26Well, anyway, you're cleanly.
00:16:29That's better than being neither.
00:16:31You're darn tootin'.
00:16:33Oh, close your trap, you young whippersnapper.
00:16:37But, Buck, the only thing I'm asking is, will you and the boys back me up when I need you?
00:16:44Hoppy, I'm a cattleman.
00:16:46I don't want nothing to do with miners or mining.
00:16:50Besides, I'm aiming to steer clear of any trouble that don't concern me.
00:16:55You've got a right to feel that way.
00:16:58Oh, I've got no argument with you there.
00:17:00Well, thanks for listening, anyhow.
00:17:02Say, you ain't aiming to go through with this thing by yourself, are you, Hoppy?
00:17:09Dennis was a friend of mine.
00:17:13Well, all right.
00:17:15I'm just a dang soft-hearted idiot for giving in to you.
00:17:19Darn your hide, you always did have a way, making me see things your way.
00:17:25You mean you'll help me out?
00:17:27Yeah, I reckon it amounts to that.
00:17:29Oh, thanks a lot, Buck.
00:17:32I suppose, as long as I'm going to back you up, I might just well feed you, too.
00:17:37Come on in, get yourself a bite of tea.
00:17:39I'll join you in a minute.
00:17:40I want to speak to Wendy.
00:17:41All right.
00:17:45Oh, hello, Wendy.
00:17:47Howdy.
00:17:47I want to thank you for getting Mr. Cassidy.
00:17:50Oh, twasn't me, Miss Hand.
00:17:51We're lucky.
00:17:53Say, if you want to thank him, I'll fetch you to him.
00:17:56He's just around the corner.
00:17:57Please do, Wendy.
00:17:58I want to see him.
00:17:59Lady, I'd be tickled to death.
00:18:06Hey, Jim.
00:18:08Seen you lucky around here anywhere?
00:18:09Yeah, so I'm over there in a barrel.
00:18:11In a barrel?
00:18:12Yeah.
00:18:13I wonder why.
00:18:16Let's see.
00:18:18Yeah, well, a little water wouldn't hurt any of you fellas.
00:18:25Go away, Wendy!
00:18:28There's a lady to see you, Lucky.
00:18:30Go away, Wendy.
00:18:31First time I ever seen him scared of a woman.
00:18:34Go away, Wendy.
00:18:35Oh, what's the matter?
00:18:37I guess he must be stuck in a barrel.
00:18:40Maybe I ought to bust it open.
00:18:43Go away.
00:18:43I'm taking a shower.
00:18:46I'll wait out in front.
00:18:49Please go away, Wendy.
00:18:52Come on, Lucky.
00:18:54The lady wants to see you.
00:18:55Yeah, well, I don't want to see her.
00:18:56Go away.
00:18:57All right.
00:19:01Hey!
00:19:07You're doing a good job now.
00:19:09That's a dirty trick.
00:19:10Cassidy's has to freeze out getting a bunch of miners together.
00:19:29What's he up to?
00:19:30Figuring on opening the mine.
00:19:31Get up there quick and keep an eye on if you have to go to work digging rock yourself.
00:19:35I got you.
00:19:35I asked you men to come up here to find out how many of you are willing to go back to work.
00:19:41Ain't none of us working for our help.
00:19:44Nobody's asking you to.
00:19:46I just bought into this mine and I'll guarantee that every man that goes in there gets paid for it.
00:19:51Looks like you're throwing good money after bad, mister.
00:19:54Maybe so.
00:19:56But I still got an idea there's pay dirt in that mine.
00:19:59Even if there is, I ain't haggard to go down there no more.
00:20:02The place is jinxed, I tell you.
00:20:03A man takes his life in his hands every time he goes into that mine.
00:20:09You men don't look like you're scared, is he?
00:20:12Maybe I'm wrong.
00:20:14Well, if none of you got nerve enough to go in there with me, it looks like I'll have to work the mine myself.
00:20:20Ain't nobody going to back me down, mister.
00:20:22If you're willing to go into that mine, I am too.
00:20:24As long as I get paid for it.
00:20:26Me too.
00:20:28I heard what you said, Mr. Cassidy.
00:20:30As long as you're going to work the mine, I'm willing to string along with you if I have to swing a pick myself.
00:20:35I can be a big help to you.
00:20:36I was foreman here and I know the whole layout.
00:20:39And besides, if there's anything I can do to help the little lady that owns the place, I'd be glad to do it.
00:20:46Thanks, mister, uh...
00:20:47Slade.
00:20:48I'd be glad to have a foreman like you around, Slade.
00:20:51Get the boys started.
00:20:52All right, boys.
00:20:54All I want to work, check in.
00:20:55Keep the men working right in this part of the tunnel.
00:21:14Some likely-looking rock around here.
00:21:16Thanks, I'll do that.
00:21:18That's fine.
00:21:21All right, you in.
00:21:22Keep busy just where you are.
00:21:25You sure know your work.
00:21:31Ought to.
00:21:32Been minding all my life.
00:21:34You know, I'm mighty lucky to have men like you around me.
00:21:37You and Slade.
00:21:38He seems to know what he's doing.
00:21:40I guess he knows his job, all right.
00:21:43Say, uh...
00:21:45Was he the foreman down here when they were following that rich man of oil?
00:21:48Yeah.
00:21:50Was you one of the men working for him?
00:21:52No, Slade had trouble with that bunch.
00:21:54Fired them all.
00:21:55Choose them or high-grade them.
00:22:13Come on, get a move on.
00:22:15We've got to get a load out.
00:22:16Come on, let's go.
00:22:17Let's go.
00:22:26We're shooting.
00:23:33Hey, Slade.
00:23:51I'll take you around to have a night watchman around here.
00:23:58I'm going into town, so I'll pick up somebody.
00:24:00Well, you needn't bother, Mr. Cassidy.
00:24:02If you think we need a night watchman, I'll get just the man for you.
00:24:05Think you can trust him?
00:24:06Well, I wouldn't have him around here if I could.
00:24:09All right, go ahead and hire him.
00:24:10In the meantime, keep the boys busy.
00:24:12I'll see you later.
00:24:13Hi, fellas.
00:24:24Hi, Hoppy.
00:24:25Oh, Hoppy.
00:24:27Got a job for you two.
00:24:29Trouble brewing?
00:24:29We're ready.
00:24:30There's going to be a watchman at the freeze-out mine tonight.
00:24:32I want you to invite him out to the ranch for a little visit.
00:24:35You might have to invite him real hard.
00:24:38Meaning I'm supposed to ride hurt on him.
00:24:40That's it, exactly.
00:24:41And you've got to keep him from talking.
00:24:43Well, how about me?
00:24:44You ain't going to leave me out of this.
00:24:45Not on your life, old-timer.
00:24:47I'm saving you for the most important job.
00:24:50You're going to take the night watchman's place.
00:24:53Oh, it's all right.
00:24:55Now, you'll be right in the middle of all the excitement.
00:24:56Well, whatever it is, you can depend on me.
00:24:59What's the play?
00:25:00Well, the first thing we've got to do is get this guy out to the ranch.
00:25:03Then tomorrow, I want you to come up with a freeze-out, please.
00:25:06And meet a fellow up there by the name of Slade.
00:25:08So you're sure Cassidy isn't wise to what we've been doing?
00:25:11Of course.
00:25:12He even let me put Martin on as night watchman.
00:25:14That was a smart idea.
00:25:17Well, I'm putting a night gang to work every night from now on instead of once a week.
00:25:20And it's up to you to see that nobody gets wise.
00:25:24How much we got in the kitty now, Perkins?
00:25:26Oh, for $15,000.
00:25:28Ah, that's piker money.
00:25:30We're going to have $50,000 in the pot this time next month.
00:25:34$50,000?
00:25:36Hurry up, get back to your job.
00:25:38Yes, sir.
00:25:44Good night, Joe.
00:26:10Hello.
00:26:10Hi, Jake.
00:26:11Hi, Slade.
00:26:30Hi, Pierce.
00:26:31Everything's clear.
00:26:32Good.
00:26:34Say, would Cassidy like to lay his eyes on you?
00:26:36Ah, shut up.
00:26:55See you tomorrow night.
00:27:00Night, Evans.
00:27:01Uh, you sure Martin knows about giving us a signal?
00:27:04Yeah, I'll leave it to him.
00:27:06Good night.
00:27:07Good night.
00:27:16Think I got everything straight?
00:27:17Sure.
00:27:18If I see any strangers around, it's a wrap on the water pipe.
00:27:21Right.
00:27:22Keep your eyes open.
00:27:24Good night.
00:27:24Good night.
00:27:25Good night.
00:27:25Good night.
00:27:25Good night.
00:27:25Good night.
00:27:25Good night.
00:27:27Good night.
00:27:29Stay where you are.
00:27:37Oh, I'll take charge of that little cricket.
00:27:40Never mind wrapping on that water pipe.
00:27:43Say, you look tired.
00:27:45I'll bet you're just aching to get out there on a ranch.
00:27:48Hey, you're crazy.
00:27:49I got a job here.
00:27:50Oh, no.
00:27:51You mean you did have a job here.
00:27:53See what I tell you, Wendy?
00:27:54He's just crazy to get out there.
00:27:56Yeah.
00:27:56I'll bet you're just aching to go out there with me.
00:27:58Well, it looks like since you're doing the inviting, I'll have to accept.
00:28:03Oh, you'll love it out there.
00:28:05Nice soft bags and good eats.
00:28:08Shall I take your arm or will you come along?
00:28:10You'll get yours for this.
00:28:12You don't need to go thanking us here.
00:28:14You can thank me when I get back to the ranch.
00:28:21Poppy, I'm worried.
00:28:23What about?
00:28:24I wish I hadn't gotten you into this.
00:28:26If there's going to be any gunplay.
00:28:28Why don't you let me do the war, Ann?
00:28:29I can't help it, Poppy.
00:28:31If anything were to happen to you, I'd feel I was to blame.
00:28:39You might as well know the truth, Ann.
00:28:43This town's liable to be a mighty unhealthy place for a while.
00:28:46Well, why don't you go out to the ranch and stay?
00:28:50At least until this is straightened out.
00:28:52I'm going to stay right here.
00:28:54Maybe I can be of some help.
00:28:56But you can't tell what's liable to happen.
00:28:58You might even be in danger yourself.
00:29:01Why don't you go away for a while?
00:29:04No.
00:29:05I'm staying.
00:29:06All right.
00:29:08Have a cheer on way.
00:29:13Morning, Murphy.
00:29:14Morning.
00:29:16Morning.
00:29:16Morning.
00:29:23Good morning, Mr. Cassidy.
00:29:25Oh, good morning, Slade.
00:29:27You're up early.
00:29:28Yeah, waking the sun up.
00:29:30Time to take a run up here first thing.
00:29:31Say, uh, Slade, I bet you were going to hire a watchman.
00:29:37I did hire one.
00:29:38Les Martin came to work last night.
00:29:41Nobody on the job when I come up here this morning.
00:29:43There wasn't?
00:29:46Maybe he went to sleep in the tool shed.
00:29:54Hey, which one of you fellas are former?
00:29:57He is.
00:29:58Eh?
00:29:59I say he is.
00:30:00What say?
00:30:02He's the foreman, you deaf old idiot.
00:30:05What do you want?
00:30:05I'm the foreman.
00:30:06I'm looking for that night watchman's job.
00:30:10I met the fellow that had it.
00:30:11He said he was quitting to go up the counter seat to see a doctor.
00:30:15He's alien.
00:30:16Something wrong with his penicillus.
00:30:19I think we better get somebody else for a watchman.
00:30:22This old good-for-nothing's a blank unless you yell at him.
00:30:25You say something to me, mister?
00:30:27Well, how about his job?
00:30:29If I don't get it, I don't eat.
00:30:31I hate to turn down a hungry man.
00:30:33Well, it's up to you if you think he can earn his keep.
00:30:37I think he can.
00:30:38What's your name, you old battle axe?
00:30:40Eh?
00:30:41Your name.
00:30:42Name.
00:30:43N-A-M-E.
00:30:44I ain't lame.
00:30:45What's your name?
00:30:47Oh, name.
00:30:48Yeah.
00:30:49Harry, uh, Harry Wishes Sweeney.
00:30:52Anything else?
00:30:53Age?
00:30:54Huh?
00:30:56Age.
00:30:56Never had the age of another.
00:30:58How old are you?
00:30:5932.
00:31:00Ha, ha, ha.
00:31:01What's all the yelling about here, huh?
00:31:04If that guy's 32, I'm a hyena.
00:31:07What's that?
00:31:08Let it go.
00:31:09Huh?
00:31:09Experience?
00:31:11Hey, what's the matter, this fellow?
00:31:13Can't he talk English?
00:31:14He's all right.
00:31:15Tell him you'll take the job.
00:31:16Tell him what?
00:31:18Say you'll take the job!
00:31:20You're darn tootin' how to take the job.
00:31:22What do you suppose to come up there for?
00:31:24Pick daisies?
00:31:25Afford to work at eight tonight.
00:31:26Eight.
00:31:27Eight it is.
00:31:27And I'd like to see somebody stop me.
00:31:29He'll sleep in the tool shack.
00:31:31You better show him where he's gonna sleep.
00:31:33If you try explaining anything to him,
00:31:34you'll have to yell your lungs out.
00:31:36A little earlier for work, Mr. Slade.
00:31:56I make an inspection every night.
00:31:58Eh?
00:31:59Oh, shut up.
00:32:01Oh, lost your pup, eh?
00:32:02Too bad.
00:32:06Oh, shut up.
00:32:24Hiya, Pills.
00:32:25Hi.
00:32:26Got a new watchman?
00:32:27Yeah?
00:32:28Yeah, and you won't have to kill him unless you want to.
00:32:30He's deaf.
00:32:31And dumb.
00:32:32He'll be dead if he makes any phony moves.
00:32:36There's some watchman, old fella.
00:33:00County sure did me a favor and let me take you out of your grave.
00:33:03Why should I say you?
00:33:04There ain't no society folks around here.
00:33:07Good night.
00:33:08Good night.
00:33:08Good night.
00:33:20Good night.
00:33:28Go for it.
00:33:29Good night.
00:33:31Good night.
00:33:31Good night.
00:33:32Good night.
00:33:33How do you feel?
00:33:34Good night.
00:33:34Hold it, fellas.
00:34:04Hold it, fellas.
00:34:34All right, men, back to work.
00:34:48It was just that old white cat.
00:34:51Yes, sir.
00:34:52There they was, big as life, working away in our mine.
00:34:56Were they working on both tunnels?
00:34:58Uh-uh.
00:34:59There was only one.
00:35:01The tunnel on the right as you faced them?
00:35:03Yeah.
00:35:04How do you know?
00:35:05Of course, that's the one we don't work.
00:35:08Wendy, there's something fishy about this.
00:35:11My guess is that there's a tunnel leads from the Delma Care mine
00:35:14and connects with ours.
00:35:15And the Slade's in with Frazier.
00:35:17Are we rounding them up tonight?
00:35:19No, not till we find out who got Denny.
00:35:20Ah.
00:35:21You better get back to mine now before they miss you.
00:35:24Blow the light out, will you?
00:35:34Oh, my God.
00:35:55Let's go.
00:35:55Take a couple of men out the mouth of
00:36:11tunnel. Better put some new timber up out there. Looks kind of weak. But it's all right to me.
00:36:15Maybe it does, but I want to make sure. All right. Just as you say. Ross, Williams, come on with me.
00:36:25Let's go.
00:36:55THE END
00:37:25What are you trying to do?
00:37:46Shut up, I'll ask the question.
00:37:48Well, I ain't talking.
00:37:56Well, what's the meaning of this?
00:37:59It means there's no more mystery about the freeze-out mine.
00:38:04Our neighbor here lets himself in through the side door there,
00:38:08helps himself to our gold,
00:38:10and kills anybody that happens to get in his way.
00:38:14Nice work, Cassidy.
00:38:16Well, take your prisoner down to the assay office
00:38:18and explain things to Perkins.
00:38:20If the gold from the Devil May Carol matches the gold in the vein we lost,
00:38:23we'll trap the whole outfit.
00:38:27Thanks for the idea, Slade.
00:38:29Hey, you, get up.
00:38:31Walk between us and watch your step.
00:38:33Don't make any phony moves.
00:38:39Sir Cassidy wants to know if the ore they're shipping from the Devil May Carol mine
00:38:42matches this piece we took out of the freeze-out,
00:38:45and we first hit that rich vein.
00:38:46I'll take a note.
00:38:48Those two rocks are from the same place.
00:38:50And you'll testify that the Devil May Carol
00:38:52is out of the freeze-out mine?
00:38:55Positively.
00:38:56Good.
00:38:56Now we can...
00:38:57Just a minute.
00:38:59I'd like to have that statement in writing.
00:39:01Oh, you can trust me, Cassidy.
00:39:03But I don't blame you for taking no chances.
00:39:06Oh, I trust you, all right.
00:39:08Just that I like to see things on paper.
00:39:11There'd be less lying if there were more men like you.
00:39:14What are you going to do with him?
00:39:16I figure on turning him over to the sheriff for safekeeping
00:39:19until we round up the others.
00:39:22You got any better ideas?
00:39:23If you do that, we're liable to get out.
00:39:27Whatever.
00:39:28Well, if the men who've been high-grading your gold
00:39:31find out that you're out of them,
00:39:32they'll stay away from the freeze-out,
00:39:34and you'll never catch them.
00:39:37I never thought of that.
00:39:39What do you suggest?
00:39:40We ought to hide him someplace.
00:39:42He can't do any talking until we round up the rest of the gang.
00:39:44Do you know of a place?
00:39:46There's a deserted prospect of Shackhouse and Sandstone Gulch.
00:39:49We could hold him there.
00:39:51That sounds all right to me.
00:39:53Here's your statement, Mr. Cassidy.
00:39:55I'll take this little piece of paper.
00:39:57Come on, let's go back to mine.
00:39:58I want to get my horse.
00:40:07Stand still, you jughead.
00:40:10Say, Slade,
00:40:11how much of a ride is it
00:40:12out to that deserted Shack and Sandstone Gulch?
00:40:15About half an hour.
00:40:17That's fine.
00:40:17I've got to be back here within the hour.
00:40:19We ought to make it easy in that time
00:40:21if we don't have any more trouble.
00:40:23Come on.
00:40:24Come on.
00:40:24Come on.
00:40:25Come on, let's go.
00:40:26Let's go.
00:40:28Let's go.
00:40:31Let's go.
00:40:41Let's go.
00:40:43Watch out.
00:40:44Get inside.
00:41:08Sit down.
00:41:08Now, if you were to talk, we might get a court to go a little easier on you for turning
00:41:17the state's evidence.
00:41:18Evidence against who?
00:41:20He knows who I'm talking about.
00:41:22The boss.
00:41:24The one that planned this whole thing.
00:41:30I got a pretty good idea who he is, too.
00:41:32But have it your own way.
00:41:34I'm just trying to save all of us a little trouble.
00:41:36Better tie him up, Cassidy.
00:41:38We wouldn't want him to get back to town in time to warn the others.
00:41:42I'm going to let you tie him up, Slade.
00:41:44What do you mean?
00:41:46Unless I'm mighty mistaken, you're in this as deep as anyone.
00:41:51Drop it, Cassidy. You're covered.
00:41:58I had an idea I might be needed, but Perkins told me what was up.
00:42:02Here, tie him up.
00:42:06Give me that gun. I'll finish it.
00:42:08No. If he was found to let him, his friends wouldn't rest when he tracked him.
00:42:12Give me that gun and I'll finish it.
00:42:33No, if he was found to let him, his friends wouldn't rest when they tracked us down.
00:42:39Here's a much better way.
00:42:42Here we go.
00:43:12Here we go.
00:43:42Here we go.
00:43:44There.
00:43:46There.
00:43:48There.
00:43:50There.

00:44:56There.
00:44:57There.
00:44:58There.
00:44:59There.
00:45:00There.
00:45:02See that Buck and the boys are ready tonight.
00:45:04When the men go into the mine, you get the signal.
00:45:07What's the signal?
00:45:08Well, look.
00:45:09Light your pipe.
00:45:10The match will be a signal.
00:45:16Well, I guess they got my horse.
00:45:18Have luck to come by here and pick me up.
00:45:20I gotta play dead here till sundown.
00:45:22I'll meet you to Sunday.
00:45:23There ain't gonna be no party.
00:45:31Where you been?
00:45:56Speak up, young fellow.
00:45:58Where you been?
00:45:59Oh, I didn't find anything.
00:46:00I said, where?
00:46:02Where have you been?
00:46:03Where?
00:46:04Yes.
00:46:05Yes, what?
00:46:06Yes, where have you been?
00:46:08That's what I asked you.
00:46:09Somebody passed me.
00:46:11Oh, get back to the mine where you belong.
00:46:13Huh?
00:46:14Get back to the mine and stay there.
00:46:16Oh, well, why did you say so in Berkeley?
00:46:20Goodbye, Mr. Slade.
00:46:21Get up there.
00:46:24You're coming into town and running to Slade.
00:46:27You know, I got an idea he's suspicious of me.
00:46:29But everything's all set for the night.
00:46:31I'm supposed to ride out now and tell Buck Peters.
00:46:34But I'm scared I'm being watched.
00:46:35I'll go, Windy.
00:46:36I want to do something to help.
00:46:38I don't like the idea.
00:46:40If anything ever happened to you, Hoppy never forgave me.
00:46:43Oh, I wouldn't even forgive myself.
00:46:44I've got to take the same chances as everyone else.
00:46:47Well, all right.
00:46:50Tell Lucky to pick up Hoppy in Sandstone Gulch.
00:46:53And remember the signal.
00:46:55They're supposed to close in on the mine when I light my pipe.
00:46:58And mind you, come right back.
00:47:00One, pick up Hoppy.
00:47:01Pick up Hoppy.
00:47:02Two, the signals when you light your pipe.
00:47:04Light your pipe.
00:47:04And three.
00:47:05Come right back.
00:47:06Come right back.
00:47:08You better hurry back to the mine before they miss you.
00:47:10I'll stop for the ranch right away.
00:47:11Okay.
00:47:11Okay.
00:47:11Okay.
00:47:11So that's the way the land lies, eh?
00:47:31Well, you can tell Hoppy that we'll be there, ready to back him up.
00:47:35Thanks, Mr. Peters.
00:47:37It's fine of you to help.
00:47:38If there's any thanks due, you give them to Cassidy.
00:47:43He's the one who talked me into this.
00:47:46Well, make yourself comfortable.
00:47:48I'll go get a horse for Hoppy.
00:47:55Boys, get saddles on your horses.
00:48:02What's up, Mr. Peters?
00:48:04Why, Hoppy's all set to start moving in tonight.
00:48:07Oh, then we're riding.
00:48:08Yeah, we'll cut over north of the Devil May Care mine.
00:48:12Well, there we can see Windy's signal that all's clear.
00:48:15Then we close in.
00:48:16What's the signal?
00:48:18Windy'll light his pipe.
00:48:21But I think maybe you better stay here and look out for your guests.
00:48:25And miss all that fun?
00:48:26I should say not.
00:48:27Say, I owe a couple of them miners a black eye and I aim to pay them back.
00:48:31I reckon I'll find a way to keep them here until we get back.
00:48:33Come on.
00:48:35Fred, saddle my horse.
00:48:37Well, here you are.
00:48:46You can tell Hoppy that we'll meet him just north of the Devil May Care mine.
00:48:50Thanks, Mr. Peters.
00:48:51Someday I'll try to tell you how really grateful I am.
00:48:55Just having you smile at me that-a-way is thanks aplenty.
00:49:00There you are.
00:49:07Goodbye.
00:49:08So long.
00:49:09What's your idea, Lucky?
00:49:20I'm going along.
00:49:22What about Martin?
00:49:24Well, he'll keep until we get back.
00:49:25Hey, let me out of here.
00:49:27Don't go off and leave me like this.
00:49:30Hey!
00:49:32Let me out of here, will you?
00:49:33Don't go out of here, Will!
00:49:35I suppose he gets out of there.
00:49:37Well, he won't go very far without any clothes on.
00:49:40All ready, men?
00:49:42Yep, we're all set.
00:49:43All ready, Bob.
00:49:48All right.
00:49:49Let's go!
00:49:50Let me out, Will!
00:49:52Don't go off and leave me like this!
00:49:54Let me out, Will!
00:49:55Let's go!
00:50:25Let's go!
00:50:51Ann, what are you doing here?
00:50:53I brought your horse, but I see you have yours.
00:50:54Yeah, he'll come back as soon as they turned him loose.
00:50:57Buck and the boys are waiting for you just north of the Devil May Care mines.
00:51:01Well, that's fine, Ann. But you shouldn't have come out here.
00:51:04Well, I had to do something. I couldn't just sit by.
00:51:08Sometimes it's better to play safe.
00:51:11But I feel it's up to me to see that the men who killed Denny are punished.
00:51:16That'll probably be done before morning, Ann.
00:51:19Hoppy, don't let anything happen to you.
00:51:23Now, don't worry. Nothing's gonna happen.
00:51:26If everything works out right, you'll be heading east before long.
00:51:29Someday.
00:51:30I hope I can do something to show my appreciation for all you've done for me.
00:51:35Forget it. I'll see you later.
00:51:37Good luck.
00:51:38Thanks.
00:51:39Al, you stay here. When you get the signal from Frosty, relay it back to Red.
00:51:46We're all ready, Cassidy.
00:51:48Al, you stay here.
00:52:01When you get the signal from Frosty, relay it back to Red.
00:52:13We're all ready, Cassidy.
00:52:15Lucky's getting set for Windy's signal.
00:52:19Good.
00:52:21Mighty whiter you to be here, Buck.
00:52:23They couldn't keep me away.
00:52:33Windy's on the job, all right.
00:52:35Now, keep your eyes peeled on him.
00:52:37But he lights his pipe. Give the signal.
00:52:39I got you, my Pete.
00:52:45Everything's all set, Hoppy.
00:52:50Good.
00:52:51Brought this along in case you might need it.
00:52:53Probably will.
00:52:57There they go.
00:53:03They got the freeze-out spy today.
00:53:05I can guess what happened to him.
00:53:14We ought to be getting that signal soon.
00:53:16Who's on the lookout?
00:53:17Frosty and Al.
00:53:18I hope Windy's on the job.
00:53:21How gamble he is.
00:53:22Good evening, Mr. Slade.
00:53:23Been inspected again?
00:53:24What do you think I've been doing?
00:53:25Eh?
00:53:26Someday you're gonna ham me once too often.
00:53:27Yeah.
00:53:28I believe you're right about that.
00:53:29Uh-huh.
00:53:30Uh-huh uh-huh.
00:53:34Uh-huh
00:53:35David Howley
00:53:37Um...
00:53:38Hold on,
00:53:43watch,
00:53:57hold on!
00:53:58I wonder if something's wrong.
00:54:09If we don't get the signal in 10 minutes, let's charge anyway.
00:54:12No, we're liable to run right into a trap.
00:54:20What are you trying to do?
00:54:22My pipe, I ain't got no matches.
00:54:24Here, see if these will work, you mattress-faced old jackrabbit.
00:54:28Thank you very much, Mr. Slade.
00:54:30You're very welcome.
00:54:49You tell us, get all set.
00:54:51I'll give you a whistle.
00:54:54I'll give you a whistle.
00:55:24I'll give you a whistle.

00:55:46I'll give you a whistle.
00:55:47I'll give you a whistle.
00:55:48Bucks, you and two of the men come with me.
00:56:07Lucky, you and the rest of the boys stay here
00:56:09and guard the entrance to the mine that we get back.
00:56:10Hey, Jim, come on.
00:56:15Well, with Cassidy out of the way,
00:56:17we ought to have clear sailing from now on.
00:56:19Yep.
00:56:21Here's to success.
00:56:23Maybe I should let you two finish them drinks.
00:56:26Probably the last ones you'll have for a long time.
00:56:35Put your hands on the table and keep them there.
00:56:38All right, Buck, keep them here till we finish this roundup.
00:56:48Everything all right?
00:56:49No trouble yet.
00:56:50Fred, you stay right where you are.
00:56:52Lucky, you and the rest of the boys come with me.
00:56:53Good morning, gentlemen.
00:56:57Bye.
00:56:57Bye.
00:56:57Bye.
00:56:58Bye.
00:56:59Bye.
00:57:00Bye.
00:57:00Bye.
00:57:01Bye.
00:57:01Bye.
00:57:02Bye.
00:57:17Bye.
00:57:18Bye.
00:57:18Bye.
00:57:19Hey, we're found out. Let's get out of here.
00:57:49Hey, you fellas get out to the service. Me and Evans will hold them and they'll get clear.
00:58:13You boys stay here and draw their fire. Come on, buddy.
00:58:19Let's go.
00:58:49Back to your holes, you gophers.
00:58:56Stay out of this, honey. This one's mine.
00:59:01Hey, Lucky, you and Wendy take the prisoners into town. I'll meet you there.
00:59:07I'm dying for a smoke, Peters. Haven't had one all night. Mind if I light a cigar?
00:59:12Well, I guess it's all right.
00:59:18I'm dying for a smoke, Peters. Haven't had one all night. Mind if I light a cigar?
00:59:24Well, I guess it's all right.
00:59:27I guess it's all right.
00:59:28I guess it's all right.
00:59:30I guess it's all right.
00:59:32I'm dying for a smoke.
00:59:35I guess we're going to die.
00:59:37We're in time for a smoke.
00:59:39Come on!
00:59:41You're coming!
00:59:42We're going to die again now.
00:59:44I'm dying for you.
00:59:45I'm dying for you.
00:59:47Mark, Peter!
00:59:50You're not dead.
00:59:51Billy!
00:59:52You're dead.
00:59:53I'm dying for you.
00:59:54Here are you.
00:59:55This one's all right.
00:59:56What happened?
01:00:11Fraser got away.
01:00:12Which way did he go?
01:00:13Went that away.
01:00:14Wait a minute, Cassidy.
01:00:15I'm riding with you.
01:00:16No, you're not.
01:00:16This is a personal matter.
01:00:26I'm riding with you.
01:00:56I'm riding with you.
01:01:26I'm riding with you.
01:01:56I'm riding with you.
01:02:26I'm riding with you.
01:02:56I don't know whether you're right or not, Hoppy.
01:03:24About it being the best thing for me to take a trip east.
01:03:27I know I'm right.
01:03:29You need a rest, Ann.
01:03:30Go ahead now and have a good time and don't be worrying about the mine.
01:03:34You don't need to worry none about that mine, Miss Ann, with me keeping my eye on it.
01:03:39It means with us keeping our eyes on it.
01:03:40Oh, well, Ann, with us keeping our eyes on it.
01:03:43But them fellas who've got working for you, they sure are trying their best to make you a millionaires.
01:03:49I know that, Wendy.
01:03:50But I don't want to be rich.
01:03:52Unless I can share it with someone.
01:03:54Well, the men of mine are not complaining about the way you're sharing your profits with them.
01:03:58You know very well what I'm trying to say, don't you?
01:04:01Oh, I know, Ann, but I...
01:04:03Then if you don't come east to say it, I suppose I've got to come back here.
01:04:07Yeah, darn tooty.
01:04:18Yeah!
01:04:37The End
01:05:07The End
